"Das Gastmahl des Belsazar" (The Feast of Belshazzar) is a notable painting by the German-Danish Baroque artist Wolfgang Heimbach (c. 1615 – c. 1678). The artwork is a visual interpretation of the biblical story from the Book of Daniel, Chapter 5, in which Belshazzar, the last king of Babylon, holds a lavish feast using sacred vessels looted from the Temple in Jerusalem, only to witness a divine hand writing on the wall, foretelling the fall of his empire.

Heimbach's rendition of this dramatic moment captures the opulence and arrogance of Belshazzar's court, as well as the terror and confusion that arises when the mysterious writing appears. The painting is characterized by its meticulous attention to detail, rich color palette, and the dramatic use of light and shadow, which were typical of the Baroque period. Heimbach's work is further distinguished by his ability to convey the psychological intensity of the scene, as the revelers' expressions transition from merriment to dread.

Although the exact date of the painting's creation is not known, it is believed to have been produced during Heimbach's mature period, when he had established himself as a court painter and was known for his portraits and historical scenes. "Das Gastmahl des Belsazar" is considered an important work in Heimbach's oeuvre, reflecting both his artistic skill and his engagement with themes of morality and divine retribution.

The painting's current location and ownership, as well as its provenance, are not specified in this introduction. However, it remains a significant example of 17th-century Baroque art and contributes to the understanding of cultural and artistic interpretations of biblical narratives during this period.
